A Comprehensive Approach to Power Management in Embedded Systems by Antônio Augusto Fröhlich

“…A set of mechanisms specifically conceived for this scenario is proposed, including a power management API defined at the level of user-visible system components, the infrastructure necessary to implement that API (namely, battery monitoring, accounting, autosuspend, and autoresume), an energy-event propagation mechanism based on Petri nets and implemented with aspect-oriented programming techniques, and an autonomous power manager build upon the proposed API and infrastructure. …”

A cultura em questões by Caleb Faria Alves

“…Our first goal is to highlight the assumptions used to qualify and measure the consumption of cultural goods contained in the polls – in other words, to which extent this consumption is linked to culture itself –, identifying whether culture is treated as an autonomous field or as an accessory to concerns that are external to it. …”

A guided approach for cross-view geolocalization estimation with land cover semantic segmentation by Nathan A.Z. Xavier, Elcio H. Shiguemori, Marcos R.O.A. Maximo, Mubarak Shah

“…In particular, cross-view geolocalization utilizes images from various perspectives, such as satellite and ground-level images, which are relevant for applications like robotics navigation and autonomous navigation. In this research, we propose a methodology that integrates cross-view geolocalization estimation with a land cover semantic segmentation map. …”

Das Gemeinwesen, eine definitorische Annäherung by Christian Blum

“…Hegel wird für ein sozial-holistisches Begriffsverständnis argumentiert: Das Gemeinwesen ist demnach ein autonomer moralischer Akteur, der aus menschlichen Personen zusammengesetzt ist, die ihre soziopolitischen Kooperationsbeziehungen nicht nur verstehen, sondern auch aktiv bejahen, über ein geteiltes Weltbild („common sense“) verfügen und mit Hervorbringung und Schutz gemeinschaftlicher Güter befasst sind. …”

Clinical Applications of Heart Rate Variability in the Triage and Assessment of Traumatically Injured Patients by Mark L. Ryan, Chad M. Thorson, Christian A. Otero, Thai Vu, Kenneth G. Proctor

“…Heart rate variability (HRV) is a method of physiologic assessment which uses fluctuations in the RR intervals to evaluate modulation of the heart rate by the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Decreased variability has been studied as a marker of increased pathology and a predictor of morbidity and mortality in multiple medical disciplines. …”

A Violent Need for Distance by Laurent Mellet

“…In both Ian McEwan’s The Children Act and The Disappearance Boy by Neil Bartlett (2014), violence is first deciphered in the body contact which calls for a necessary distance between characters but also subplots, so that both protagonists and literary works might be autonomous. Such salutary distance leads to an aesthetics of the rift without which the intimate connection remains threatened. …”
